The efficacy of the common practice in Japan of recommending gargling to prevent post-tonsillectomy infection and to reduce throat soreness remains to be scientifically and quantitatively confirmed. In an attempt to remedy this, we had 108 subjects—48 men and 60 women aged 17 to 79 years (mean: 33.8 years)—gargle with povidone-iodine (PI) or sodium guaiazulen-3-sulfonate (AZ) following bilateral tonsillectomy. We measured the clinical effects on a pain scale and pain-medication score for comparison between the two groups. Results indicated by the medication score and pain scale demonstrated that gargling with AZ significantly reduced pain compared to gargling with PI, especially right after surgery. AZ also showed an antipyretic effect, suggesting that gargling with AZ is superior to PI as a post operative gargle.

Kawasaki disease (KD) is an idiopathic systemic vasculitis common in infants and children that affects predominantly small and medium-sized extraparenchymal muscular arteries. KD manifests various clinical symptoms, of which coronary aneurysms are the most important complication. However, the association of sensorineural hearing loss with KD is rare. A 7-year-old girl with KD was referred to our department with a chief complaint of hearing loss. In her hearing test, she showed a high degree of bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. Although the patient was treated with steroid pulse therapy (methylprednisolone), her hearing level deteriorated. Two weeks after steroid therapy, a slight improvement was seen. Thereafter, the patient started to use hearing aids. About one year has elapsed since the onset of hearing loss, but her hearing level has not improved.

The efficacy and safety of Kampo preparation Sho-seiryu-to were studied in a joint double-blind trial in comparison with a placebo. The study was carried out on 220 patients with perennial nasal allergy at 61 hospitals. Granules in a dose of 3 g were administered 3 times daily for 2 weeks. Moderate to high improvement was recorded in 44.6% of the treated patients and in 18.1% of those receiving placebo. The difference is significant (p <0.001). Side effects were noted in 6.5% of the treated patients and in 6.4% of the controls (not a significant deference). The side effects were mild and had no influence on the daily life of the patients.

We report a case of burns of the larynx caused by hot food in which emergency airway management was required.<br> A 36-year old male came to the hospital with a sore throat 14 hours after ingesting hot food (takoyaki, a Japanese dumpling containing octopus). Fiberscopic examination revealed mild edema of the aryepiglotic fold. The patient refused hospitalization against medical advice and went home after a corticosteroid injection, but returned to the hospital by ambulance with severe dyspnea the next day (44 hours after the injury). A considerably swollen epiglottis were seen on fiberscopy. Since endotracheal intubation was expected to be difficult, surgical cricothyroidotomy was performed for the relief of the airway obstruction. If a laryngeal burn is suspected, the patient should be hospitalized and observed carefully for 24-48 hours.<br>

We report herein on a case of minocycline-induced black thyroid with papillary thyroid carcinoma. A 60-year-old female, who had taken oral minocycline intermittently for osteomyelitis of the mandible for two years, noticed a palpable thyroid nodule. Fine needle aspiration of the nodule revealed atypical cells and the serum thyroglobulin level was high. Under the diagnosis of suspected thyroid carcinoma, a hemithyroidectomy with central compartment neck dissection was performed. The color of the tumor, which was diagnosed as a papillary carcinoma, was white. On the other hand, the color of the normal thyroid gland was dark red to black with minocycline pigmentation. Minocycline therapy may induce headache, nausea, vomiting, liver dysfunction and dental hyperpigmentation in children. But a minocycline-induced black thyroid is uncommon. Recently, there have been some reports that the risk of malignancy in black thyroid glands is higher than in non-black thyroids.

A case with a primary mastoid cholesterol cyst accompanying massive bone destruction is reported. The patient was a 43-year-old male, who visited our clinic because of vertigo. Otoneurological examination revealed the patient' s hearing and vestibular function to be nearly normal. A temporal bone CT showed a soft tissue mass in the left mastoid with large bone defects in the posterior and middle cranial fossae, and fistulas in all of the semicircular canals. MRI revealed a huge mass in the mastoid cavity apparently compressing the temporal lobe of the brain. The patient refused surgical treatment, and during the subsequent 4 year follow-up period the mass developed further and a cholesterol cyst was suspected based on the results of another MRI. Surgery revealed a huge cholesterol cyst located in the mastoid cavity with large bone defects and an exposed dura. Histological examination showed cholesterol granuloma accompanied by inflammation and bleeding and surrounded by thick scar tissue.<br>Obstructive and persistent inflammation in the mastoid was considered to be related to development of the mastoid cholesterol cyst.

A case with post-traumatic cholesteatoma of the external auditory meatus extending into the mastoid is reported. A 27-year-old male visited our clinic with complaints of left otorrhea and hearing impairment lasting six months. He had suffered ahead injury three years previously. The left external auditory meatus was filled with otorrhea and debris, and an audiogram revealed slight conductive hearing loss. Computed tomography revealed a fracture line on the bony external auditory meatus and bone resorption at the medial part of the fracture near the eardrum. A soft tissue density mass was observed from the site of bone resorption to the mastoid antrum. During surgery, we found a temporal bone fracture filled with scar tissue, to which the external auditory meatus adhered. At the posterior part of the external auditory meatus medial to the fracture, the epithelium of the external auditory meatus had intruded into the antrum to form a cholesteatoma, which had extended into the whole mastoid cavity. Constriction of scar tissue at the fracture site during healing and a loss of ventilation at the mastoid were suggested to be involved in the pathogenesis of this cholesteatoma.

We treated a 20-year-old man with a blind bullet wound of the left temporal bone and perforating bullet wounds of the right temporal legion, the right upper arm and right femur.<br>Following physical examination, X-P, and CT, a bullet was detected in the left temporal bone. However, other wounds did not contain bullets. Emergency surgery was performed. The bullet was suspected to have entered through the posterior part of the mastoid tip, pass through the mastoid cavity and stopped at the tympanum. The facial canal was partially broken at the vertical portion, however the facial nerve was not damaged. The bullet was removed after resecting the posterior external auditory canal. Tympanoplasty type i combined with external canal wall drilling-down technique was performed.<br>The patient showed left facial palsy after surgery. However, this gradually improved. The postoperative course in his left ear was good without infection, although the patient was deaf in that ear.

Group pure tone screening test was performed on kindergartners to efficiently screen for hearing disorders. Pure tones of 500,1000 and 4000 Hz in each ear were combined with a hand raising response. The test frequency of 500 Hz was added to screen for otitis media.<BR>About 80% of children over 3 years and 6 months of age were capable of takin g the group screening test with hand raising response. At the same time, the ratio of children who could pass the screening test also increased considerably from 45.2% to 65.2%.<BR>Although we used 500 Hz to screen for otitis media, it was difficult to di a g nose otitis media by hearing screening only. Therefore, hearing screening was mainly effective in determining moderate hearing loss and unilateral sensorineural hearing loss.<BR>We found that a well-planned screening procedure and preparation b e fore the screening as well as decrease in the fail one rate on initial screening are necessary to examine large numbers of children rapidly and screen hearing disorders efficiently.

In treating congenital microtia and atresia, we conduct simultaneous external canal plasty, tympanoplasty, and auricle elevation with plastic surgeons about 6 months after auricleplasty by only plastic surgeons. The results are good both cosmetically and functionally. We report 13 cases in which hearing did not improve satisfactorily after surgery using postoperative high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the temporal bone. Lateral healing was seen in 9 (69%), new bone proliferation in 3 (23%), malpositioning of a cartilage block in 2 (15%), and both lateral healing and malpositioning of a cartilage block in 1 (7.6%).

Intratympanic gentamicin is used to control episodic vertigo in patients with the severe form of Meniere’s disease, but it may also cause hearing loss. The purpose of this study was to investigate gentamicin-induced changes in hearing in such patients.In this study, a total of 38 patients (mean age 55.4 y, range 23–86 y, male 16, female 22, side rt 17, lt 21) who received intratympanic gentamicin administration were monitored by pure-tone audiogram (PTA) and click-evoked extratympanic electrocochleography (ECoG) over a period of five years. Hearing detection thresholds were measured by PTA, and the summating potential (SP), action potential (AP) and SP/AP ratio were determined by ECoG. The patients received dilute gentamicin solution with sodium bicarbonate administration into the middle ear 1 or 2 times.The mean hearing level at mid frequencies (500–2000 Hz) was 47 dB before the treatment and 40 dB after the treatment. The mean hearing gains at the frequencies of 125, 250, 500 Hz, and 1 kHz were 12.6, 12.1, 10.5, and 6.2 dB, respectively. The differences in the hearing levels at the frequencies of 125, 250, and 500 Hz recorded before and after treatment were statistically significant (p<0.001).The longitudinal follow-up conducted after the treatment did not show any worsening of the hearing levels or relapse of the vestibular symptoms. The SP/AP ratio (0.49 before and 0.34 after treatment) seemed to return to normal in the long term after gentamicin treatment. Normalized SP/AP resulted in hearing gain at the frequencies of 250 and 500 Hz. The amplitudes of the SP (0.59 before and 0.3 after treatment), and especially of the AP (1.23 before and 0.86 after treatment), decreased after gentamicin treatment, indicating hearing loss. The hearing was better in 16 cases (42%) and showed no change in 18 cases (47%), while hearing loss occurred in 4 cases (11%) because of gentamicin.Intratympanic gentamicin treatment alleviated hearing loss and reduced vertigo. It also normalized the SP/AP ratio, and the consequent hearing gain may reflect a reduction in endolymphatic hydrops. Long-term observation after gentamicin treatment revealed stable hearing.

Thirty-five normal subjects were stabirographically studied using a force plate on the rolling platform. The rolling was controled manually between 0 and 0.6 Hz applied at random. The upper limit of power spectrum and phase shif between rolling and body movements were measured.<BR>These parameters were similar to the results of constant rolling of above 0.2 Hz and were influenced by the rolling of above 0.2 Hz in the random rolling.<BR>As the rolling was controled manually, the power spectrum of rolling was not stable and the content of random rolling changed at every measurment. The motor of rolling platform made noise during acceleration and deceleration allowing the subjects know the rythm of rolling.<BR>These problem indicated that this technique was not adequate for the prevention of forecasting behavior.

A clinical evaluation was conducted on 107 patients with laryngeal cancer treated in our department between 1976 and 1985. Their mean age was 64.0 years, and the male to female ratio was 12: 1. Histopathologically, squamous cell carcinoma was the most common malignant tumor constituting 97.2% of all the cases, whereas there were only 3 cases of verrucous carcinoma. There were 52 cases of glottis,52of supraglottis and 3 of subglottis. The overall five-year survival rate was 62.7%. The five-year survival rates for Stages I to IV were 74.6%,84.9%,54.2% and 31.1%, respectively. As the five-year survival rate of T4 cases was 0%, more aggresive therapies such as combinations of extended operation, irradiation and chemotherapy appear to be required in such cases. In our clinic, the patients with metastases to the cervical lymph nodes at preoperation were treated with radical neck dissection combined with the total laryngectomy in most cases. Radical neck dissection for such patients decreases the number of death due to uncontrolled metastases to the cervical lymph nodes. In the cases of the advanced stage, careful postoperative examination is required.

The scoring system is widely accepted as a simple and useful method for evaluating the degree of facial palsy, but there have been some problems in objectivity and reproducibility. This study investigated a new objective method of analyzing facial movements and examined the physiological range of asymmetry and differences between genders.<BR>Facial expression data input to an Apple Computer using Quick Tim e was analyzed by applying digital image editing techniques.<BR>Forty-six healthy volunteer subjects were analyzed utilizing this method. To quantify facial movements, several points on the face were identified to accurately monitor their movements. Twenty-four white marks were placed on the face, and 10 pictures in a series from resting to maximum movements were imported. The movements of each marker were expressed on a coordinate axis. Four voluntary facial movements (forehead wrinkling, eye closing, grinning and whistling) were examined.<BR>The trajectory of the marks were expressed n umerically and changes in an area within a polygon produced by connecting all marked points with a line were measured. The ratio of the area of maximum movement to the area at rest was obtained and used for comparative investigation.<BR>The differences in the ratio between the left and right sides were less than 6% in any area and any movement. There were no significant differences due to gender. Some areas obtained by subdividing showed larger changes with facial movements than other areas.

In the cerebellopontine angle, there are several different types of brain tumors. Acoustic neurinoma, meningioma and epidermoid are seen most frequently. Clinically, the differential diagnosis of these three brain tumors is very important. In this report, we present diagnostic characteristics of these brain tumors in the cerebellopontine angle. Instead of reporting typical cases, we venture to present atypical examples of each brain tumor, which are usually difficult to differentiate. Neurotological criteria for differential diagnosis of these brain tumors are proposed, in order to clarify the differential diagnostic features.
